Did the Gibson Vixen turn into the 2014 Melody Maker?

I have a thin Les Paul that's comfortable and sounds great and a great player. It's called an SG.

Yeah, but the balance isn't right for me, and the neck pickup is sort of in the 'wrong' place.

You are preaching to the choir - an SG was my main guitar for years! I think the did a Godess series of SGs too, and I wouldn't mind one of those either.

Ah ha, but a good strap won’t allow it to dive, and the right sounding pickup in the neck can help get around the position of it. But yeah, I get it just can’t work for some. Everything is a trade off.
